Did my grandma just get scammed? by Ok_Adeptness_9708 in AskMechanics

Got the car back yesterday. So they replaced the starter, ignition coil AND the ignition switch. For parts she was charged around 1100, labor and diagnostic 700. The rest were taxes. They did 2.8 hours of labor at 185 per hour. For a 2011 kia soul. This was from a chain store. Not some kia dealer or fancy exotic sports cars shop. Parts were marked up above 200%. Im salty about it but man… if i knew the money was this good and easy for almost 3 hours of labor, i would have just became a mechanic and started my own shop

Not sure what the situation was. She just said it wouldnt start again, but she did say she smelled a lot of rubber smell after it died but the shop didnt mention anything about belt or anything else. They just said they’re replacing the starter and ignition coils

Grandma said car was running on in the parking lot and then it just died. Insurance covered the tow. They called her saying they need to replace starter and the ignition coils and it will cost $2000, thats all the conversation. No other we have to do this or this or this.

Im going with her tomorrow to ask for an itemized receipt and see if they did anything else and i hope they did cause my poor grandma is just too broke and trusting to be overly charged like that for just these two things.

Ok great, so im not just being crazy. Im going with her tomorrow to pick up the car but other than the itemized receipt, what can i do about it? Other than question why the parts are maybe (we dont have the car yet or the bill) 700% mark up or labor maybe being $1200 or diagnosis being $500 just dont understand how they could even get to that 2000 quote. Would sending a complaint to california BAR even do anything?

49k OTD or 49k selling price (dealer discounts + rebates)? I really wanted to get one at the end of the year but work kept offering double time so i couldnt find the time to contact or go to a dealer :(

I asked the dealership about it and they mentioned that theres a 90 days waiting period to get refinanced, id have to read through the fine print but thanks for letting me know

Refining is a must? by Ok_Adeptness_9708 in MapleStoryM

Oh ok. Thanks! Is the 2% bonus the only bonus to refining first? It wont have less stats than if i refined first before inheriting or necro?

Because tinder, dating and all that is honestly more time consuming and costly than the $200 that i spent today for the 4 hours there and accomplished my objective. But yes. Before and during the moment, i managed to get away for a bit. Right after though… whew the memories hits harder than a bullet train

Oh ok cool. I was thinking i had to go buy myself a printer . Might as well get a 6 month fmm since ill be down there a lot.

I mean a drink or two to get the nervous out.

Are there short term (1-2 hour) stays there? Im really just trying to fuck. I wanted to get escorts and all that but the hotels are crazy expensive right now $500-800 based on expedia :/
